  1. It is good to hear that, as Mrs Fairway and I have a couple of trips this year and by luck they are both 737-8 or -9 Max, but we've checked and our life insurance is paid up for the year. So we have that going for us.
  2. I don't know how to break the news - but nothing only goes up, buy the rumor/sell the news, so up 25% YTD, 113% 1 year, 147% 3 years and you are worried about the negative reaction to an earnings report. This stuff happens all the time, and eventually to most companies, is your concern that it is more than a blip on the path forward? If so sell some, or buy puts (as a hedge), or sell some OTM calls to generate some premiums from your holdings. note - my comments are based on interpreting your comments as if they relate to Facebook specifically and not the broader market (like S&P 500); I get that it is easy to get nervous. If you want more safety, you can still get 5%+ on cd's and there is no harm in that.
  3. Wasn't me - I didn't buy or sell anything, not stocks, not ETF/funds, not puts, not calls, not a damn thing
  4. Worst event of the entire season for the PGA tour - Zurich Team event, 2 man teams playing alternating shot and best ball (or as they call it in the Ryder Cup four-ball and foursomes). News flash for Jay and his money team, #NobodyCares sidebet - which set of brothers has the best finish Fitzpatricks/Hojgaards/Coody's also to Kuchar & Stricker get to play from the Sr tees
  5. Dude, wait until you find out about Grandkids. They are gods gift to you for not killing your kids. You don't have the day-to-day with and responsibility and financial commitment; but you can have as much of that as you want. And they are cute, loving and when they misbehave it is the parents job to work that out. Disclaimer - my oldest grand is not yet 10, but I can tell that by the time they are teens the while dynamic I describe will change
  6. Dilution of existing shareholders - either to Mgmt, VC, or other deities is a trademark of Stonks. Moose out front should have told you.
  7. So you are saying don't bet on him to win the PGA in May, I might just risk it anyway
  8. Scottie wins again, it will be interesting to see how having that first kid affects his game. Ted Scott is a much wealthier man after April. Also, Miles Russell, the 15 year HS freshman playing in the Korn Ferry event makes the cut and finishes T20 (68, 66, 70, 66 for -14) & like Scottie he bogeyed the last hole. Now back to algebra, english lit, and cafeteria lunches.
  9. I was wrong, apparently the weather can also stop him from picking up a winners check (hoping just delays it, but if that baby conspires with mother nature)
  10. Did Meredith go into labor? Because that is the only thing that is stopping Scottie from picking up another winners check.
  11. https://www.newsweek.com/lauren-boebert-gets-support-becoming-house-speaker-1892294 Now you know Matt is an idiot, fucking with us, fucking her - or all 3
  12. damn - I can't make that many 2's and 3's in a round of putt putt
  13. So I am reading articles saying Trump is angered/pissed that the judge is rushing the hush money trial; given enough time I think Trump would admit he needs more time to prepare & to pay hush money to potential witnesses. The theatrics are amazing....but not surprising ? - is Trump really wanting to go to trial on Federal charges, maybe plead down to some lesser charges or plead nolo contendre, all while believing will be able to pardon himself when he is sworn in again as Prez?
  14. I need to go back and read the pages I skipped (2-14). but 1 page in and I'm wanting to start a "Free Derka" movement. Because the board is just better with him on it. Dude is okay, quiirky but bleeds UT sports and you knew whatever he was typing was his honest perspective. Good luck SO/DD - go horns (disclaimer - hoping that this doesn't get me on the wrong side of Imma )
  15. LOL - I was going to support SML Johnson for having some backbone and getting this shit started on a path to get voted on (and hopefully passed), but I am waiting to see if Three Year Letterman agrees with catturd2, if not I may have to reevaluate.
  16. escalating ware in the MIddle East continuing war in Ukraine funding impasse in the US to support the ongoing war efforts China expansion pressures continue in the Pacific Rim (and economic support to Africa) political uncertainty in the US Market impact
  17. so sell and take my 24 hour loss, or average down on my cost? sit and hold could be best, but it is a boring way to lose money...
  18. Next star (or flash in the pan) on tour is debuting this week on the Korn Ferry - 15 year old Miles Russell No 1 ranked junior, high school freshman. He missed the Monday qualifier, losing in a playoff for the final spot (so the sponsor gave him one of their exemptions) Jordan played in the Nelson at age 16, Scottie was 17 when he played (and finished T22) in the Nelson. Can the kid really play - early results say yes - he is currently -4 after 6 holes (really hoping I don't jinx this kid) https://www.pgatour.com/korn-ferry-tour/article/news/latest/2024/04/17/miles-russell-15-years-old-makes-debut-lecom-suncoast-classic-lakewood-national-golf-club-junior-players-champion?webview=1 Disclosure - I was looking a the KF leaderboard because a local guy is now playing there after 10+ years on the big tour, but the headline on the KF Tour page caught my attention. Oh yeah and the local guy isn't playing this week (or many weeks at all; 3 events this year, 3 missed cuts)
  19. Oh no, does he need glasses? Is there a problem with his vision? Sure he have pink eye? People want to know.... People on this site
